Turnov Czech. Rep.
T&T, Turnov s.r.o., glass machinery, Czech Republic, container glass industry; IS machines; complete design, project management, prototype building, manufacturing, testing, implementation and start-up of dedicated projects for the container glass industry, the automotive and the automation sectors. Objectives:
Establishment on the market as an innovative start-up in the glass industry with a strong partner
Running the machine with one controller
Need for motors for fullfilling glass factory requirements
Need for motors for resisting harsh glass factory environments (hot temperature)
Supported by EU funding & the Czech Ministry of Industry & Trade, T&T has been relying on Siemens & SIMATIC motion control right from the start when realizing an IS machine for the first time. The protoype of the IS machine will run at Glass Futures in UK & requires a high level of computing power as well as the experience to implement a reliable system in such an innovative & unique machine. SIMATIC motion control system: The IS machine is equipped with SIMATIC S7-1518T. By combining the CPU with SINAMICS S120 servo drives and the use of SIMOTICS T-1FW6 torque motors, high motion control performance is reached.
The high performance of the machine in the area of motion control is due to the combination of the SIMATIC T-CPU controller with SINAMICS S120 servo drives and innovative use of SIMOTICS T-1FW6 torque motors.
